WHEREAS,GARY GRABER,the applicant,has applied for a variance pursuant to MMC 14.32.060(D),allowing a water connec- tion without sewer connection for the property located west of Highway 99,east of Interstate 5,in the 2900 block of 193rd Street N.E.;and WHEREAS,a pUblic hearing on the variance application was held by the City Council on July 22,1991,which was continued to August 12,1991;and WHEREAS,the City Council entered the following findings of fact: 1.Mr.Graber has submitted a letter from the city of Arlington dated August 1,1991,reflecting no objection to the extension of water service by the City of Marysville to the applicant's property.Said letter is incorporated herein by this reference. 2.There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applying to the subject property which do not apply generally to other properties in the same vicinity;namely,that the placement of a house or duplex and a drainfield that meets the 100-foot setback requirement from any source of pollution would prohibit the drilling of a separate well on the property. Also,the particular lot is surrounded by other homes with septic systems. 3.Without a water hookup,the lot is not buildable and, as SUCh,the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant possessed by the owners of other properties in the same vicinity. 4.The authorization of the variance will not be materi- ally detrimental to the pUblic interest,welfare or the environ- ment since the variance would allow safe water and the construc- tion of affordable housing. RESOLUTION - 1 5.The granting of the variance will not be inconsistent with the long-range plans of the city utility system or jeopar- dize utility availability for properties within the City limits, particularly since the city's long-range plans include a water transmission pipeline which will provide for greater capacity in the area.' NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE,WASHINGTON,AS FOLLOWS: A variance for the applicant's connection to the city water system without city sewer is hereby granted to the applicant for the property located west of Highway 99,east of Interstate 5,in the 2900 block of 193rd Street N.E.This variance is subject to the following conditions: 1.The applicant must comply with all requirements for water connections. 2.This variance shall become void if the water connection is not completed within six months of August 12,1991,as provided by MMC 14.32.060(b). 3.The applicant shall sign a covenant agreeing not to protest the annexation of the subject property to city limits of the city of Marysville. 4.The applicant shall be required to construct an 8-inch water main to service the property,with hydrants to be provided along an easement on the north boundary of said property in accordance with city requirements.
